Hero GP: 6000 mph
Hero GP is a brand new Game Boy Colo(u)r game, released via itch.io for download to play in any emulators but also able to be used on a GBC itself via a flashcart or on an Analogue Pocket. It is obviously inspired by Hang On, but the constraints of the GBC make the game more streamlined, with more immediate controls and with a simpler game structure.

This isn’t meant as a dunk, or a sarcastic tagging.

There are two settings that hide the top bar and compose button when a timeline is scrolled down. This helps to make the UI less cluttered for sighted users. But it makes these controls unavailable to screen readers. (Continued in reply.)

Arm CEO Rene Haas sides with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, saying US export controls on China threaten to slow tech advances and harm consumers and companies (Bloomberg)

So, completed the first flight with the new controls. They are _significantly_ different than the setup that I have for _Elite: Dangerous_ which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Once I managed to get used to the control scheme the flight was pretty smooth.
Unfortunately I'm gonna need to practice landing and using the rudder pedals a lot because the landing was one of the absolute worst yet. The passengers were not amused, but since we all lived they should be grateful.

Anarchism and Linux share key similarities in decentralization. Anarchism puts power back into the hands of the people through democratic, decentralized communities and bottom-up unions that organize collectively without hierarchy. Similarly, Linux operates as a decentralized system where no single entity controls the whole; instead, development and decision-making happen through collaborative, distributed contributions from a global community.
They also align in the principle of mutua…

The human aspects of the Ukrainian operation Spider's Web i find the most amazing, driving all those trucks through Russia, having drone operators on site (!), evading all checks and controls within Russia. Very likely a lot of bribing was involved, the extreme level of corruption makes Russia weak.

PolyTrack: try try again
PolyTrack is a Trackmania tribute - almost identical gameplay mechanics, but with digital controls, simplified driving model, and a very stripped-back graphical style. It's even simpler than Virtua Racing in many ways, with the car having a polygon count almost in the single digits. This simplicity means that it runs incredibly smoothly, even in-browser at Much like Trackmania, the courses are short but deceptively tricky to complete.

Canadians: Replace Ardern with Trudeau and use other Canadian touchstones in place of #nzpol and you have an accurate article for Canada.
Which should speak to what Progressives actually need to do here, and everywhere.
"Ardern’s leadership has often been described as emotionally intelligent, compassionate, and people-centred. But compassion is not liberation. Empathy alone does not redistribute wealth, dismantle police power, or decommodify housing. What Ardern perfected was a mode of governance that couched neoliberalism in progressive language. A style of leadership that appeared anti-fascist, anti-racist, and feminist, while presiding over deepening inequality, mass incarceration of Māori, ongoing colonisation, environmental destruction, and a housing system that serves landlords and property speculators.
Ardern’s “politics of kindness” masked a status quo commitment to capitalism and state power. Her government’s housing policies floundered under the weight of market logic. Despite the crisis of homelessness and unaffordability, the Labour government never seriously considered nationalising housing, implementing rent controls, or seizing vacant properties from land-bankers. Instead, they protected the interests of property investors, many of whom were MPs themselves."
